r'''This code simulates an SIS epidemic in a graph.  The edges are weighted by
two methods: the product of the degrees, or the inverse of that product.

I then run simulations with the transmission rates scaled by the edge weights
such that a random edge would have expected transmission weight 1 (though since
there will be biases in which nodes are most likely to be infected, the
random edge that has an infected node will have higher transmission weight).
